Yea pretty new to the jeep game. Know some people that have flipped their jeeps pretty bad though but they were probably being idiots. I plan to build my jeep up to go to and from the Mt. so I think a 2 inch lift would be ideal. How do the square roof racks do with skis and things? Cant tell if it would be better to just keep the stock bars on top and get ski racks instead? Any other good additions people recommend, I've been researching but like hearing from others who know their stuff.

I've got a water leak making my passenger (RHD XJ) carpet wet when it rains.
The water is coming down inside the plastic trim in front of the door (from the direction of the A-pillar).
I've cleaned inside the cowl, and removed, cleaned and re-fitted the weather strip running down the A-pillar in the door gap.
What are the main things that could cause this?
If it's of any use my AC doesn't work, and only the flat bit of the carpet is wet.

What should I have for caster at 5" lift? I am measuring using an angle finder on top of the knuckle and currently have 9 degrees with the arms at their shortest and 12 degrees with them at their longest. Shouldn't the angle go down with longer arms?
